Oh man, chocolate cake with raspberries is definitely greater than any god. Though I am forced to hold a slight grudge against you know, as you've made me want raspberries in a season where it's impossible to get hold of them :(
Thanks for the references to all the philosophical essays, I'm enjoying reading them.
I love it when people of other faiths try to falsify different faiths. SO hypocritical.
I really like your videos so far. There is a problem with my internet so I can't watch all of them(sad face) in fact I am watching this at school(At the most religious state in the nation)
@Aresftfun: It's even funnier when Christians call other avowed Christians "not really Christian" when they don't like that person or feel that other person reflects badly on their religion. Hitler, for instance.
It strikes me that a debate between a Christian and a Muslim as to which religion's doctrine of salvation is correct is very much like two chimpanzees scratching each others balls for an hour in order to determine which are the hairiest. Except that the chimps' time would be being used more productively.
@TheLivingDinosaur Indeed - the chimps might well remove some ticks while they are there, while I doubt that any improvement would be made to the doctrines.
I also doubt that any parties got an erection in this debate....
christians are insane, its that simple, ken miller and ALL of them, ANYONE who beleives in an all-loving god has mental issues and doesn't deserve even basic human respect since they already have the beleif that everyone deserves eternal torture
@blazereef No, wait , it make perfect sense, he wants us to love him so much that he had to make the lake of fire to save us from not loving him cos if we don't love him that that would be worse than a lake of fire, so they lake of fire is unecessary, which means that he must be doing it out of love!
@wearealltubes lmao, they have made more rediculous attempts at justifying eternal torture then what you said, they have said shit like "god has to honor the eternal soul" whatever the fuck that means
I'm afraid this beautifully artuiculated presentation will prove just a little too logical, factual and self evidently correct for your average god-fearing Christian fundie to grasp. They deal only in ludicrous fantasies, mind boggling inconsistencies and blatant self-contradiction. Nonetheless, excellent work!
@amisy11 Thanks for pointing this out. In France, I always had to ask people to speak more slowly, and I often asked them to repeat themselves. I know how frustrating it can be. If it helps, you can read transcripts at areluctantchristian.blogspot.c o m . Also, let's talk via PM -- I would like to know which parts are difficult, so I can speak more clearly.
@GreatBigBore If you have the transcript of the video you could add it to the description of the video or upload it to a web and add the link to the description.
It's very helpful for non-English speakers so that we understand everything.
I don't think your English is complicated but the audio of your videos has a weird metallic component. Sounds like if you were a robot, and I'm sure you're not because no robot in the present time can make so elaborated speeches. :-)
@GreatBigBore I asked NonStampCollector for the transcript of some of his videos and so I made the subtitles in English and Spanish for those videos.
Now he's got the subtitles in English so that any person who wants to translate his videos into any language can do it easily. They just have to ask NSC for that .srt file
@GreatBigBore I´ll translate yours to spanish, if you are in no rush, since I havent got much time. Despite what I am reading from other viewers, your choice of words seem much easier to understand being a non native, maybe a bit of slang is what they want. I think that you gave too much time in each video to explain what it is called, what it is about, and what you will be analyzing. I saw abc and d in a row, and I think there is no need for such profuse explanation.
What I hate about a debate between two theists is that it starts off with both parties assuming that there is a god.
This is a debate about what kind of god exists without acknowledging that he might not exist at all which makes debates like this so utterly pointless.
It's like someone "proofing" god exists by reading out of the bible.
First I need proof that god exists before I believe that the bible is gods work, it doesn't work the other way around.
Excellent video. You talked about Yahweh's followers having split into 'thousands of sects' - considering just Jesusianismists, Barrett's 'World Christian Encyclopedia', 2001 edition, counts 33,830 denominations within Christianity. Barrett is a proud Christian (a Charismatic), so this number is an estimate by a Christian, and not some attempt by an atheist to disparage Christianity by exaggerating it's fragmentation.
Calm, reasonable and concise - no added and unnecessary colour commentary - just the facts, m'am. Your videos force detractors to face the real issues head on without giving them a foothold to sling personal diatribes and vocal excrement in your direction. The points that you bring up have to be addressed - no more prancing about the hard facts. I would like to see you tear apart some of the stuff that is coming out of Tariq Ramadan head. Moderation is not the answer - engine full-stop.
GBB, well said. From inside the religious world, I'm sure these guys' arguments seem interesting & relevant - but take a step back and really listen to them... and they become farcical.
Unclear expression on my part. The ugly thing was the dragon face. Celine Dion represents torture. I agree that SJP doesn't fit mainstream beauty, but I had to use an imaginary being--I couldn't think of any human physically ugly enough to represent the ugliness of Dr Craig's god.
Hey, thanks for watching and commenting! To all of you guys. I'm really blown away.
@GreatBigBore I got one.. Pia Kjærsgård. The leader of the fascistoid Danish People's Party (Dansk Folkparti) her inside ugliness is visible on her outside too.
@GreatBigBore That's because your videos have an interesting content. But I think you should try to inject more of your sarcasm and humorous play of word. I like to watch your videos but sometimes I think that it's really dry because you basically hold a long speech. You should try to make it a bit more entertaining.
@GreatBigBore I would suggest a picture of NephilimFree for that particular representation. Do a screen cap of his rant about the she-bears and freeze it when he is talking about the children being killed....a truer depiction of the ugliness in men's hearts will never be found!
